Progesterone, by increasing oxidative efficiency, opposes this "angiogenic" (neovascularization) effect of estrogen 1 0 2Progesterone is both an anticatabolic hormone and an antiestrogenic hormone, protecting the functional systems from atrophy 1 0 2Progesterone is probably the most perfect antiestrogenic hormone, and therefore an anti-stress and anti-aging hormone 1 0 2Stress, a "respiratory defect", and free radical damage are common factors in disease and aging 1 0 2Synthetic glucocorticoids are often given to premature babies, adding to the risk of retinal damage 1 0 2Cytochrome oxidase is one of the enzymes damaged by stress and by blue light, and activated or restored by red light, thyroid, and progesterone 1 0 2The use of synthetic glucocorticoid hormone is standard in treating very premature babies although it is known to contribute to eye damage 1 0 2Progesterone and pregnenolone, by reducing the stress reactions, should be helpful in the eye diseases of infancy and old age, as they are in the respiratory distress syndromes 1 0 1Stress is normally balanced by increased synthesis of pregnenolone, which improves the ability to cope with stress 1 0 2Pregnenolone and progesterone deficiency causes memory loss, destabilization of nerve cells, failure of myelin formation, and excess cortisol synthesis 1 0 2
